Hello,

pg_dump ignores anything created under object name "pg_*" or
"information_schema". I guess you will not have any "CREATE TABLE"
definition  as well for information_schema.abc. Related code:

else if (strncmp(nsinfo->dobj.name, "pg_", 3) == 0 ||            strcmp(nsinfo->dobj.name, "information_schema") == 0)
{       /* Other system schemas don't get dumped */       nsinfo->dobj.dump_contains = nsinfo->dobj.dump =
DUMP_COMPONENT_NONE;  }
 

Hence, there is no point of creating publication for it in the dump.
